I Started Missing You Again

walking down fifth Avenue 
in the early evening mist
store windows lit with neon lights
just taking in the sights
sunset just beyond the afternoon delights
I started missing you again

missing moments when we kissed
the way we touched with tenderness
the way you held me in your hand
the way I knew I was your man
I started missing you again

time has a way of passing by
I pray you found your happiness
with a man that deserves your love
I was such a fool in my foolish ways in thoes days
I did not realize what I had 
that's what makes me sad
I started missing you again

saw two lovers pass me by
going someplace special faces all a glow
as my eyes began to fill with tears
thinking of our special years
through the good times and the stormy weather
I started missing you again

my love for you will nerver die
I just wish we never said goodbye
the shows where we would go
all the ole haunts
the little restaurants 
what could have should have been
I started missing you again

evening mist turns into rain 
people look as they pass by
 they can't tell I'm crying in the rain
I started missing you again

Beautifully heartbreaking. Love known and lost is always the worse. Wonderful. Thanks Monica

Seeing the places you used to go together is bad, but looking at happy couples passing by can really make you feel sad and alone. But look at the wonderful poem that sprang from these strong emotions, Dennis. Hope you are feeling better now. Best wishes, Carolyn
